Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Devils Staircase?
The best area to stay near Devils Staircase is in Queenstown itself, particularly around the town center or along the lakefront. This provides convenient access to the region's main attractions and services.

For couples seeking a mix of convenience and scenic beauty, staying in Queenstown's town center is ideal. Hotels here are often within walking distance of Lake Wakatipu, fine dining restaurants, and the gondola up Bob's Peak. You'll find a variety of accommodations, from boutique hotels to luxury resorts, many offering views of The Remarkables mountain range.

Travelers who prefer a more tranquil setting with direct lake access will appreciate properties slightly outside the immediate town center, along the shores of Lake Wakatipu.
When is the best time to go to Devils Staircase?
The best time to experience Devils Staircase, Otago, New Zealand, is during the spring (September to November) or autumn (March to May) months.

During spring, the weather is generally mild, and the landscape comes alive with blooming wildflowers, particularly alongside Lake Wakatipu. You'll find fewer crowds compared to the peak summer season, making it ideal for scenic drives and photography without interruption. The road conditions are typically excellent during this time.

Autumn offers similarly pleasant weather and the added spectacle of changing foliage, especially in the surrounding areas of Queenstown and along the Frankton Arm.
Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?
